Victoria Rinsma, sous chef at Michelin-recognized Hexagon in Ontario, has earned her place among the world’s top 15 culinary (烹饪的) talents after winning last year’s Canadian title. Her signature dish “Across the Sea and Home Again” is both personal and distinctly Canadian. It blends traditional East Coast comfort food from her grandmother’s homemade recipes with contemporary techniques she has perfected in Hexagon kitchen. She considers the dish as the purest form of expression of her culinary journey.
Rinsma is trained by Hexagon’s executive chef Rafael Covarrubias, who won the 2019 Canadian title and represented Canada in Milan in 2021. He offers much more than just technical support; he also coaches her on mental resilience, arming her with all-round preparation for the contest. That sense of continuity of one generation of chefs lifting the next helps make Canadian cuisine globally renowned for diversity, regionality and innovation.
Now she will test her signature dish under the supervision of international judges in Milan for the S.Pellegrino Young Chef Academy Award 2024-25, a platform highlighting technical ability, creativity, sustainability and storytelling through food. For Rinsma, it’s a chance to bring Canadian ingredients and identity to a global audience.
In Milan, she will share the stage with fellow chefs from every corner of the world: chefs from Hong Kong, Panama, Slovenia, South Africa, the United States and the United Kingdom. Each will present a unique dish shaped by their own culture and training. Together, they represent the future of global food culture.
Rinsma’s plan for the future draws equally from memory and ambition. By weaving her grandmother’s beloved East Coast flavours into a dish refined for one of the world’s most demanding culinary competitions, she bridges past and present, home and away.
4. What is special about Rinsma’s signature dish
A. Conventional techniques. B. Grandmother’s recipe inspiration.
C. Hexagon chefs’joint efforts. D. Personalized and Canadian features.
5. What role has Rafael Covarrubias played in Rinsma’s culinary journey
A. Representing Canada with her. B. Offering her full-range support.
C. Shaping her award-winning dish. D. Teaching her basic cooking skills.
6. What do we know about the culinary competition in Milan
A. It requires dish storytelling. B. It tops the world’s culinary contest.
C. It prioritizes cooking techniques. D. It targets chefs from Asian regions.
7. Which of the following best describes Rinsma as a chef
A. Modest and skillful. B. Dynamic and competitive.
C. Creative and patriotic. D. Cautious and independent.
C
Consumers rely on various ways to pay daily expenses. The problem is that they tend to spend more with cashless payment methods in comparison to cash. This striking cashless effect has recently been confirmed by researchers from the University of Adelaide.
Led by PhD Student Lachlan Schomburgk, the research team analysed 71 published and unpublished studies from 17 countries, including data from more than 11,000 unique participants. They’ve found that cashless payments lead people to spend more on status-signalling goods like jewellery, while this effect is notably absent in acts of donation or tipping.
“Through this meta-analysis, we identified key factors that make the cashless effect stronger or weaker, which individual studies could not find. By doing this, we uncovered new key understandings that had often been overlooked by other researchers in individual studies.” Schomburgk explains.
The findings indicate that consumers should be mindful of how they pay for goods or services, as this helps them spend less, especially critical in the current cost-of-living crisis. To avoid overspending, they’re advised to carry cash instead of cards whenever possible as a self-control method. When using cash, they count and hand over notes and coins, making spending more noticeable. If nothing is physically handed over, it’s easy to lose track of how much is spent.
The study also provides useful insights for businesses and policymakers. “Businesses should know failing to accept the cashless revolution might unintentionally be jeopardising profit potential,” Schomburgk says. “And policymakers should communicate to individuals unfamiliar with cashless payments, such as people who don’t have bank accounts, about the possibility of cashless methods to lead to overspending.”
Schomburgk stresses a need for urgent in-depth studies of new payment methods, as research on their specific impacts remains limited due to their novelty. Studying these methods is vital to keep pace with the evolving payment ecosystem and deepen understanding of modern consumers’ spending habits.
8. What has the study found about the cashless effect
A. It exists in acts of donation. B. It weakens with more cash use.
C. It links to the living cost crisis. D. It works in specific consumption.
9. Why did the team adopt the meta-analysis
A. To solve the overspending problem. B. To compare cash and cashless payments.
C. To confirm factors causing the effect. D. To break the limitations of single studies.
10. What does the underlined word “jeopardising” in Paragraph 5 mean
A. Risking. B. Preserving. C. Shifting. D. Boosting.
11. What can be inferred about new payments according to Schomburgk
A. They need to be popularized. B. They are developing rapidly.
C. They should be further studied. D. They will affect spending habits.
D
Only about three percent of early childhood teachers in the U.S. are male. Experts say this can have an impact on young children whose understanding of gender roles and identity is rapidly forming. Research has found that having access to diverse teachers is beneficial for children. For the youngest learners, it means they are more likely to be exposed to various types of play and communication. It also helps them develop healthy ideas around gender.
“In our world and our society, we have very specific stereotypes (刻板印象) of gender roles,” said Mindi Reich-Shapiro, an assistant professor in the teacher education department of the Borough of Manhattan Community College, and one of the authors of a recent study. “It’s important for children to see other possibilities and other paths they can take.”
Despite mostly feeling supported by colleagues and family members, many of the male educators surveyed in the study reported facing social or cultural resistance in their careers as early education teachers. Some also reported that some parents were surprised or concerned that their child had a male teacher. Additionally, they had been advised by colleagues or other staff not to hug children.
Reich-Shapiro and fellow researchers made several recommendations to increase male representation in the field. Low pay has long been acknowledged as a major issue in the early childhood field. Over 70% of male educators who said they intended to stay in the early education workforce noted that an increased salary was a major motivating factor for them to remain in the career for the long term. The report suggests paying all early childhood educators the way elementary school teachers are paid.
Cities and programs should establish support groups for male early childhood educators and provide mentoring and professional development advice for male educators and their program leaders.
The authors also suggest that traditional recruitment (招聘) approaches for early childhood educators “do not address the gender gap in the field.” They recommend providing young men with opportunities to work with children through training and volunteer programs, specifically targeting groups of men who are considering a career change, such as fathers.
12. What is a main benefit of having male early childhood teachers
A. Challenging gender fixed ideas. B. Helping children form positive gender ideas.
C. Serving as role models for children. D. Exposing children to different types of play.
13. What does the social resistance male teachers face imply
A. Understanding from relatives is important. B. Parents’ doubts have a profound impact.
C Changing old gender views is needed. D. Coworkers’ advice really makes a difference.
14. What is a suggested way to attract more men into the field
A. Set up development courses. B. Limit recruitment requirements.
C. Pay equal to elementary teachers. D. Provide more job opportunities.
15. What is a suitable title for the text
A. Men Missing in Early Childhood Education
B. Solutions for Gender Gap in Early Education
C. Importance of Male Teachers in Early Education
D. Challenges Male Teachers Face in Early Education

People favor humor, as it lights up daily moments, eases awkwardness and makes every interaction warm and enjoyable. This magic of humor doesn’t just work in daily life; it also shines in the field of science, especially online. ____16____
Firstly, humor simplifies tough scientific knowledge. ____17____ For example, explaining AI in self-driving cars with a funny analogy about “machines learning like clumsy toddlers” makes abstract ideas easy for non-professional groups to understand. ____18____ Scientists sharing clever and humorous stories about laboratory experiments on social media often attract more interactions than dry academic posts. Additionally, humor humanizes scientists, as seen in popular science lectures where light-hearted jokes help audiences feel closer to researchers.
____19____ The hidden risks deserve our attention. If the content itself is untrue, humor can even replace facts, leading the audience to form wrong opinions about scientific knowledge just based on the amusing posts they see. Overusing sarcasm or negative humor also has the opposite effect, as it will quickly make scientists lose the public’s trust and damage their credibility.
Proper humor use requires a balance between vivid expression and professional precision. It should neither overshadow the core scientific information nor be so shallow that it loses seriousness. ____20____ Scientists who master this balance can effectively narrow the divide with the public, making science more welcoming and popular.
A Overuse harms professionalism.
B. It also boosts audience engagement effectively.
C. It helps break the impression of scientists being cold and distant.
D. A little humor can greatly enhance scientists’ communication effect.
E. Humor in scientific communication is a double-edged sword, though.
F. It’s a helper in making complex concepts understandable to ordinary people.
G. It is believed humor needs to be used with great care in such communication.

47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落的开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was a seemingly ordinary day when the crew of the fishing boat, the “Ocean Breeze”, set sail from the small coastal town of Seaview with its mast (桅杆) standing firm. Captain Jack, a seasoned sailor with decades of experience, led the team of five young and eager fishermen. The sun shone brightly, and the sea was relatively calm as they headed out to their usual fishing grounds.
As the day wore on, the sky began to darken. Clouds rolled in from the horizon, and the wind picked up speed. Captain Jack noticed the change in the weather and decided it was time to head back to shore. But as they turned the boat around, they realized they were in trouble. The waves had grown into towering monsters, crashing against the hull (船体) of the “Ocean Breeze” with a force that made the boat shudder (颤动).
The crew members, who had initially been excited about the day’s catch, now, faced a terrifying situation. Rain lashed down, reducing visibility to almost zero. One of the fishermen, Tom, a young lad on his first long-distance fishing trip, was visibly shaken. “Captain, what are we going to do ” he shouted over the howling wind.
Captain Jack, his face set with determination, barked out orders. “Everyone, stay calm! Secure the equipment and hold on tight!” he yelled. The crew quickly sprang into action, tying down loose ropes and making sure the hatches (舱口) were tightly closed. But the storm was relentless (不停的). The boat was tossed from side to side, and water started to leak in through the cracks.
Suddenly, a massive wave hit the boat, causing it to tilt dangerously. Tom lost his balance and was thrown towards the railing (栏杆). He clung on for dear life, his hands slipping on the wet metal. “Help!” he screamed.
At that moment, Mike, another crew member, grabbed Tom’s arm and pulled him back onto the deck. “Are you okay ” Mike shouted. Tom nodded, his eyes wide with fear.
The situation on the boat grew more desperate by the minute. The engine sputtered (发出噼啪声), and for a moment, it seemed as if it would die completely. Captain Jack fought to keep the boat steady, but the storm showed no signs of abating (减弱).
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150个左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Just when they thought things couldn’t get any worse, lightning struck the mast of the “Ocean Breeze.”
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Despite the chaos, Captain Jack refused to give up.
